Solid, reliable connect and disconnect even when blasting 100 psi all at once to seat tubeless tires beads.

Pressure gauge is nice and big too. Only drawback is that the pump is too tall and huge for my daughter to use. So I still have to keep another floor pump around for when she wants to help.

Looking back, I'd probably only buy it if you need the tubeless functionality, though. The head makes the pump, apparently, and it's easy to find a different head or even use their metal head kit on a different pump.
Mine works fine but I want to buy that head upgrade anyway now!

I bought into this kickstarter. Haven’t had it delivered yet
